Translational thermal nonequilibrium in plasmas Assumptions

Boltzmann equation

Grad-Boltzmann limit: huge number of particles of very small diameter interacting with a finite mean free path value

N0 particles of characteristic diameter d0 in a box of size L0 Ratio of the olume occupied by these particles and the volume of the box:

1 6 πN0(d0/L0)3

Limits N0 → ∞ and d0/L0 → 0 for finite 1/Kn = N0π(d0/L0)2 This volume ratio can be expressed as 1

6 (d0/L0)[N0π(d0/L0)2] = 1 6 (d0/L0)/Kn

This quantity tends to zero for a fixed value of the Kn number

⇒ the gas is dilute

Assumptions

Dilute gas of n

S species: e.g. i ∈ S = {N2, O2, NO, N, O, N+ 2 , O+ 2 , NO+, N+, O+, e−}

Point particles of mass mi: no internal energy Binary and elastic collisions (no chemical reactions) Molecular chaos: probabilities of finding particle i at point (x, ci) and particle j at point (x, cj) in the phase space are independent Collision pairs of arbitrary impact parameter are equiprobable: quantity f

i (x, ci) does not

change over distances of the order of the collision cross section

The second-order electron diffusion velocity and heat flux are also proportional to the heavy-particle diffusion velocities We refer to this coupling phenomenom as the Kolesnikov effect (1974)

This coupling is essential to derive a total energy eq. and entropy eq. that satisfy the laws of thermodynamics These 2nd order transport fluxes should not be confused with Burnett transport fluxes

Perturbed energy level lemma

The following lemma allows to split the internal energy of all the levels in perturbed elastic and inelastic contributions for the fast collisions

Lemma (Graille, M., Massot 2012)

For all energy level i ∈ I, let us consider the fast collisions (i, j) ⇋ (i′, j′), with (j, i′, j′) ∈ Fi = {(j, i′, j′) ∈ I3 and |E i′j′

ij | ≤ ε}. There is a perturbed

energy ˆ Ei ∈ R such that |Ei − ˆ Ei| ≤ Cε, where C is a constant, and such that for all the fast reactions, the net perturbed energy vanishes, i.e., ˆ E i′j′

ij

= 0. ⇒

This property is crucial to separate the energy collision invariant into fast collisional invariants and to expand JF

i (f) in ε

In turn, it allows for a generalization of the Chapman-Enskog method to gases with internal degrees of freedom in thermal nonequilibrium A particular example is the theory for the generalized Treanor distribution [Kustova and Nagnibeda 2009]

Collisional invariants identified in the kernel of collision operators Macroscopic conservation eqs. follow from Fredholm’s alternative Laws of thermodynamics and law of mass action are satisfied Well-posedness of the transport properties is established, provided that some conditions on the kinetic data are met

Advantages compared to conventional models for atmospheric entry plasma flows

Mathematical structure of the conservation equations well identified Rigorous derivation of a set of macroscopic equations where hyperbolic and parabolic scalings are entangled [Bardos, Golse, Levermore 1991] The mathematical structure of the transport matrices is readily used to build transport algorithms (direct linear solver / convergent iterative Krylov projection methods) [Ern and Giovangigli 1994, Magin and Degrez 2004]
